Missoula, Montana is one of a kind and so are the citizens. Outsiders don’t understand us and to be a true Missoulian is a title that must be earned. Students from The University of Montana compiled a list of instances only true Missoulians understand. To be considered a true Missoulian is a privilege, not a right.
1. You know you’re a true Missoulian when the only reason you grow a beard is to protect your face from freezing wind. -Alexander Fuehrer
2. You know you’re a true Missoulian when the features of your Subaru include a “Keep Missoula Weird” bumper sticker, a cracked windshield, and a year round ski rack and/or bike rack. -Larke Stuart
6. You know you’re a true Missoulian when some off your friends (not dropping names) know the happy hour schedule better than their own class schedule. -Connor Campbell
9. You know you’re a true Missoulian when you have out of control road rage when it takes you more than 15 minutes to get from one end of Missoula to the other. -Kristina Carlino
13. You know you’re a true Missoulian when you realize for the first time in your life you’re excited to wake up at a reasonable time on a Saturday to go buy fresh vegetables at the Farmers Market. -Scott Young
19. You know you’re a true Missoulian when you and your buddies recite A River Runs Through It quotes when you’re fishing on the Blackfoot. -Connor Campbell
Number 21 is an image at a fraternity house at MSU Bozeman. True Missoulian indeed. FAAAAAAAAAAAAILLLLLL!
Hey Bob,
You’re right that is a fraternity in Bozeman, I’m impressed by your ability to identify it but just seeing the wall. This is one of my personal photos and although it is from Bozeman, it’s still a priceless snap of “a nightmare for you or friends’ past.”
